People who set aside extra time for gardening in spring and again in fall find that their gardens require less maintenance during the cool winter and hot summer months.
-Plant artichokes, chayote, corn, green beans, New Zealand spinach and tomatoes.
-If you have room there's still enough cool weather left to plant a few cool-season crops: i.e. beets, cabbage, head lettuce, kohlrabi, mesclun, and potatoes.
-Of course you can plant year-round crops: i.e. beets, carrots, chard, radishes, turnips.
-Plant herbs
Gardeners with low-lying or mesa-top gardens should still be aware of cool temperatures at night and the possibility of frost until March 15.

Continue to fertilize Citrus and Avocado trees.
